RE: If God is Good, Why is there So Much Pain in the World?

in #christianity7 years ago

God is smart - He has put the world in Auto pilot mode... He has minimum involvement in the day to day functioning... what you and I see is very limited perspective of what is actually happening... The answer to your root question is Karma... You reap what you sow, and this cycle of reaping and sowing is not limited to one lifetime... its an endless cycle...

Thanks for your visit, and for sharing your opinion about God. I appreciate hearing your viewpoint, but respectfully disagree.

The God who I worship is named Jesus. He created the entire universe. He is intimately aware of every detail and completely engaged in its moment by moment operation.

I do fully agree that we reap what we sow, with the exception that by God's kindness and forgiveness, we don't always reap the bad stuff... In my case, Jesus bore the brunt of the "bad reaping" that was due to me.

"All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all."

- Isaiah 53:6

Well there is no escape... Just be thankful to God in all times (Good or Bad)... The nature is maintaining the ledger of all the deeds... it has to be balanced...

I am very thankful to God.

I also appreciate your comments. Thanks for visiting! ;)
